BATTERY LIFE
Long battery life is one of the most important requirements for convenient and enjoyable game
camera use. There are several variables that will determine the battery life including type of
batteries, temperature outside, recording settings, frequency of camera activity, etc. Colder
temperatures, more advanced settings, night photos and high photo frequency (low camera
delay) will result in shorter battery life. Different brands of batteries may also perform better than
others, so please experiment to find what works best for you. (NOTE: Capturing video clips
and time lapse videos uses more power and will result in shorter battery life then capture motion
detected photos.)
EXAMPLES:
- Camera in standby mode with limited record activity may produce up to 1 year battery life.
- Camera with a lot of day activity in mild climate may produce tens of thousands of photos
on one set of AA batteries.
- Time Lapse 10s Interval mode may only result in 5 to 7 day battery life using 8 AA batteries
and 10 to 14 day battery life for Time Lapse 20s Interval mode.

issues that can result in loss of game pictures.
Formatting The SD Card Erases All images and Data.
